To make use of Air France’s cancellation policy effectively, always cancel as early as possible, understand your ticket’s fare conditions, and use the "My Bookings" tool or customer service to initiate requests. Stay informed of your rights especially under EU261/UK261 when dealing with delays or cancellations. And if your refund doesn’t appear within the typical window, consider escalating via support or your payment provider.1_855-838-4886]

Yes, you can cancel your Air France flight and receive a refund, but your eligibility depends on several key factors such as the type of fare you purchased, when you cancel, and how the booking was made. Air France honors a 24-hour risk-free cancellation policy for flights departing at least seven days after booking allowing customers to cancel for a full refund without penalties if the booking was made directly through the airline’s website or customer service. Beyond this 24-hour window, the refundability of your ticket is determined by your fare class. Fully flexible fares (like Economy Flex or Business Flex) generally allow cancellations with full refunds, while semi-flexible fares may incur a cancellation fee. On the other hand, non-refundable tickets typically do not qualify for cash refunds, although in some cases, Air France may issue a travel voucher for future use after deducting applicable fees. If Air France cancels your flight or there’s a significant delay, you're entitled to a full refund or a free rebooking, and possibly compensation under EU Regulation 261/2004. Refunds can be requested online via the "My Bookings" section on the Air France website or by contacting customer service. Typically, refunds for credit card purchases are processed within 7–10 business days, while other payment methods might take longer. For award tickets booked using Flying Blue miles, cancellation fees may apply.1_855-838-4886]
